Johnston Carmichael, a UK-based accountancy and business advisory firm, has bolstered its workforce by adding 92 new students across its offices in Scotland and Newcastle.

The new recruits, including graduates, university placement students, summer interns, and school leavers, will be distributed across the firm’s locations.

This move comes as Johnston Carmichael expands its premises in the north-east of England to increase its headcount and client base.

Graduates joining the firm will embark on training to become qualified accountants. University placement students have entered through the JC Futures accounting apprenticeship scheme, a four-to-six-year programme that provides a pathway to full qualification in the accountancy profession.

Johnston Carmichael CEO Lynne Walker said: “We look forward to integrating our new group across the business and I hope each and every new recruit has an engaging and inspirational experience at Johnston Carmichael.”

Johnston Carmichael has established a partnership with the ICAS Foundation, offering accountancy students both financial and peer support during their degrees.

The foundation’s mission is to support young individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, promoting social mobility within the accountancy sector.

Johnston Carmichael chief people officer Martin Osler said: “We have a culture where everyone is enabled to be a leader of their work and their learning. We know that amongst this group of students will be future senior leaders of our firm. Indeed, we have already seen some former graduates and school leavers become directors and partners.

“Johnston Carmichael offers a strong foundation to any young person looking to grow their career. With over 950 people across the UK, we are big enough to have a diverse range of great clients at all stages of their lifecycle and offer a smorgasbord of training and learning, but agile enough to maintain a supportive, collaborative environment where young people starting out in their career can flourish.”

In September 2024, Johnston Carmichael appointed Tom Harrison as global mobility tax specialist.
